at the heart of one of my proudest moments as an elected official. in march 2006 1 million people marched to los angeles city hall. on that historic day 1 million people threw off the yoke of suspicion and fear and stepped out of the shadows. moms and dads, kids, grandmas and grandpas. people who worked hard, who were humbled, who were tired of being scapegoated, tired of being told to go back where you come from. they were home. they are not leaving home. they wanted a response from me, the mayor. some -- in fact, many on my staff said do not go out there. "your job is to fix potholes. leave immigration to the fed's." but when 1 million people marched to war front step, they deserve a welcome. i said "i do not see illegals here." that got me in trouble. sometimes you have to say it figuratively before it becomes true. and no human being should be "illegal." that is our moral imperative. that is our political challenge in 2013. to fix our broken immigration system, we will restore a basic american covenant. we are a nation of immigrants. we have a lo
